Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Three-way on a flop of 6♥10♣Q♦, the player under the gun bet 2,400 and was called both by Guofeng Wang on the button and by Dinesh Alt in the big blind.

The under-the-gun player fired a second barrel of 4,400 on the 10♥ turn. Wang called again, but Alt folded after some time.

The 3♣ completed the board and the player under the gun bet 16,000. Wang quickly called with A♥Q♠ and scooped the pot as his opponent only had J♠9♠. Alt said he had Jx9x as well.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action picked up when Chander Jain was all in from the button. Action folded back to the players in late position and the cutoff. The late position player folded and the cutoff tanked, stated aloud, "very borderline," before finally making the call.

Chander Jain: A♦K♠ All in
Cutoff: K♦10♦

The board ran out 8♦J♣Q♦ for a bit of a sweat but the 4♣ turn and K♥ river secured the double up for Jain.

Joao Veira defended from the big blind after the button opened to 1,600.

Both players checked the 7♥A♥6♠ flop, leading to the 8♦ turn where Vieira bet 3,400. The button made the call.

It took a minute for Vieira to check the 4♦ river. The button quickly checked back and won the hand with A♠2♣ for top pair, as Vieira flipped over 9♥6♣ for a lower pair.
